naaitioa on trade preference. Two rss-
nlntlAft fMdl!
"That tho desirability be considered
of replacing the system or xraoo pro
mum at nrwsent rranted by the over
seas dominions to Great Britain by a
system of contributions in money or
services to imperial nam u "
defense." . - ... .
This resolution, coming asH did at a
time when tho Canadian reciprocity
agreement was pending both before the
legislature at Washington and tho dom
inion parliament, Ottawa, Canada, raised
. tAffli of nrotest among English citi
zens. The press of all political factions'
t.nut tha resolution ana wramwiwa
strongly upon Its introduction at a
time When so many important measures
were before the English parliament. In
fact so strong waa the pressure brought
to bear upon tho ministry of South
Africa by tho home government that
the governor general. Lord Gladstone,
submitted a letter recalling section No.
4 of the ten tali Venresolutlona f otdis
cusslon before the imperial conference,
stating that he had been advised by his
miniitn ttiat thev desired to postpone
the debate upon trade preference. bu
"that "the right honorable, the prime
minister hoped that he would have op
portunity during his stay in London to
discuss ths question raised with his
majesty's 'government-"
This action on tho part of Lord Glad
stons and the ministry of the union of
South Africa eliminates a discussion
of this all Interesting feature from tho
official imperial conference, but at the
same time strongly Intimates that it
will be taken up by the visiting mini
sters and the imperial government out
side tho meeting room. Such an action
makes it clear that England's colonies,
though they, do not Intend to coerce the
Imperial government will insist upon
this Important . matter being thrashed
out at an early date probably before
tho termination of the present confer
enoe.
Apart from tho Question of tho pref
erence several subjects of the most
vital Importance u tho future of tho
empire are to bo raised. Australia win
move to rescind tho objectionable feafr
urea of tho declaration of London, and
Now Zealand has two equally Important
resolutions, one relating to tho estab
lishment of an Imperial council and tho
other the reorganisation of the colonial
office, . ,
Vow Eealand's Badioal Suggestion.
Tho first of the resolutions -from New
Zealand Is apt to prove rather startling
to tho orthodox Englishman for it Is
nothing, more or lees than a. resolution
providing .for . the establishment of &
council which shall be composed of
members from the constituent parts of
the empire, whether self governing or
otherwise, and which shall form an ad
vtsory body having a, voloe In all-mat
ters before the borne government per
taining to matters relating to the col
onies. .....!, '. ,-.-.. ... i, .
Tbe second resolution provides for tho
reconstitute of the colonial office and
sets forth that It is essential to the
welfare of the colonies that tho depart
ment of the dominions bo separated
from that of the crown colonies and
that each department be placed tinder
a permanent separate lender secretary.
This resolution - alo-provldesfor tho
creation of high commissioners " who
shall have the status of foreign am
bassadors and . be called Into council
with the Imperial government when
ever matters pertaining to the self gov
erning dominions shall some under dis
cussion. This resolution if acted upon
favorably will make tbe high commis
sioners the only channel of communi
cation' between the Imperial and domin.
Ion governments.
Other, and scarcely less Important
resolutions presented by progresslvs
New Zealand provide for. tho Inter
change of all civil servants between
the dominion governments and the Im
perial with a view to familiarising them
with the governments and needs of both
that they may Intelligently meet all
questions that will arise In the .future;

be hanged as soon as her child is born.
The execution has been set for"
August 9. The date was determined

She chopped her husband a head oft

lic 'Interest in the woman spreads at
the rate It has been growing. It is con

worthy of his attention.

ascribe her extraordinary Indifference
over her fate.
